I want to finish with
a poem that's not mine

00:00:05.400 --> 00:00:09.540 align:middle line:90%
that I love a great deal.

00:00:09.540 --> 00:00:10.367 align:middle line:90%
Two poems, in fact.

00:00:10.367 --> 00:00:12.450 align:middle line:84%
One of them is written by
my son when he was about

00:00:12.450 --> 00:00:14.040 align:middle line:90%
three and a half years old, OK.

00:00:14.040 --> 00:00:16.620 align:middle line:90%


00:00:16.620 --> 00:00:18.990 align:middle line:84%
Poetry is fine,
pretentious, and wonderful,

00:00:18.990 --> 00:00:20.550 align:middle line:84%
whatever, and to
be struggled at,

00:00:20.550 --> 00:00:23.430 align:middle line:84%
but I like his version
of writing a poem.

00:00:23.430 --> 00:00:25.440 align:middle line:84%
He said the poem aloud,
and I wrote it down

00:00:25.440 --> 00:00:26.460 align:middle line:90%
on the typewriter.

00:00:26.460 --> 00:00:29.790 align:middle line:84%
It's called Ice Cream Bodi,
Bodi and Papa on Motorcycles.

00:00:29.790 --> 00:00:32.549 align:middle line:84%
He was playing little
motorcycles at the time.

00:00:32.549 --> 00:00:35.130 align:middle line:84%
We drive, going
vroom, and crash.

00:00:35.130 --> 00:00:36.390 align:middle line:90%
Fast, I said.

00:00:36.390 --> 00:00:40.020 align:middle line:84%
We pressed on the brakes very
hard, but still we go speeding.

00:00:40.020 --> 00:00:44.130 align:middle line:84%
That's how we make a poem,
and we go speeding out again.

00:00:44.130 --> 00:00:46.490 align:middle line:90%
It's not as hard as I thought.

00:00:46.490 --> 00:00:47.000 align:middle line:90%
